Matplotlib¶

For this excercise, we have written the following code to load the stock dataset built into plotly express.

In [4]:
stocks = px.data.stocks()
stocks.head()
Out[4]:
date GOOG AAPL AMZN FB NFLX MSFT
0 2018-01-01 1.000000 1.000000 1.000000 1.000000 1.000000 1.000000
1 2018-01-08 1.018172 1.011943 1.061881 0.959968 1.053526 1.015988
2 2018-01-15 1.032008 1.019771 1.053240 0.970243 1.049860 1.020524
3 2018-01-22 1.066783 0.980057 1.140676 1.016858 1.307681 1.066561
4 2018-01-29 1.008773 0.917143 1.163374 1.018357 1.273537 1.040708

Question 1:¶

Select a stock and create a suitable plot for it. Make sure the plot is readable with relevant information, such as date, values.

In [5]:
# YOUR CODE HERE

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot('date', 'GOOG', data=stocks)
# set title
ax.set_title('Google stock')
# horizontal axis
ax.set_xlabel('date')
# vertical axis
ax.set_ylabel('stock value')
ax.xaxis.set_major_locator(plt.MaxNLocator(5))
plt.show()

Question 2:¶

You've already plot data from one stock. It is possible to plot multiples of them to support comparison.
To highlight different lines, customise line styles, markers, colors and include a legend to the plot.

In [5]:
# YOUR CODE HERE

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot('date', 'GOOG', data=stocks)
ax.plot('date', 'AAPL', data=stocks)
ax.plot('date', 'AMZN', data=stocks)
ax.plot('date', 'FB', data=stocks)
ax.plot('date', 'NFLX', data=stocks)
ax.plot('date', 'MSFT', data=stocks)
# set title
ax.set_title('Stock Data')
# horizontal axis
ax.set_xlabel('date')
# vertical axis
ax.set_ylabel('stock value')
ax.xaxis.set_major_locator(plt.MaxNLocator(5))
# show legends

plt.legend()
plt.show()

Seaborn¶

First, load the tips dataset

In [6]:
tips = sns.load_dataset('tips')
tips.head()
Out[6]:
total_bill tip sex smoker day time size
0 16.99 1.01 Female No Sun Dinner 2
1 10.34 1.66 Male No Sun Dinner 3
2 21.01 3.50 Male No Sun Dinner 3
3 23.68 3.31 Male No Sun Dinner 2
4 24.59 3.61 Female No Sun Dinner 4

Question 3:¶

Let's explore this dataset. Pose a question and create a plot that support drawing answers for your question.

Some possible questions:

  • Are there differences between male and female when it comes to giving tips?
  • What attribute correlate the most with tip?

QUESTION: "Does smoker gives more tips than non-smoker?"

In [7]:
# YOUR CODE HERE
g = sns.FacetGrid(tips, col='smoker', hue='sex')
g.map(sns.scatterplot, 'total_bill', 'tip')
g.add_legend()
plt.show()

Plotly Express¶

Question 4:¶

Redo the above exercises (challenges 2 & 3) with plotly express. Create diagrams which you can interact with.

The stocks dataset¶

Hints:

  • Turn stocks dataframe into a structure that can be picked up easily with plotly express
In [7]:
# YOUR CODE HERE
import plotly.graph_objects as go

df = px.data.stocks()
list = df.columns
fig = px.line(df, x="date", y=list, markers='True')
fig.update_traces(marker_symbol='square')
fig.show()

The tips dataset¶

In [9]:
# YOUR CODE HERE

fig = px.scatter(tips, x="total_bill", y="tip", color="sex", facet_col="smoker")
fig.show()

Question 5:¶

Recreate the barplot below that shows the population of different continents for the year 2007.

Hints:

  • Extract the 2007 year data from the dataframe. You have to process the data accordingly
  • use plotly bar
  • Add different colors for different continents
  • Sort the order of the continent for the visualisation. Use axis layout setting
  • Add text to each bar that represents the population
In [10]:
#load data
df = px.data.gapminder()
df.head()
df_2007 = df.query('year==2007')
df_2007_new = df_2007.groupby('continent').sum()
df_2007_new
Out[10]:

Oceania 4014 161.439 24549947 59620.376550 590
In [12]:
# YOUR CODE HERE

fig = px.bar(df_2007_new, x="pop", y=df_2007_new.index, color=df_2007_new.index, orientation='h', text_auto='.2s')
fig.update_traces(textposition='outside', textfont_size=14)
fig.update_yaxes(categoryorder="max ascending")
fig.update_layout(showlegend=False)
fig.show()
